That thing melted during the POST, when the AWD BIOS shows a table with the system info and "Verifying DMI pool data..."

Suddenly, it blanked out and a thick white smoke started coming out I pulled out the cord. I was freaked. Then later when I was doing the autopsy, I found the CPU area charred, the PCB looking like burnt toast, the ZIF-socket molten, the metal heatsink retention clip having fallen off, the heatsink hanging on the northbridge heatsink. the CPU, well, looked like a fried egg that has AIDS.

Yes, I did that in the summer when the ambient temp was 122 F, 60% humidity, conditions that would make you wanna show middle-finger to God. What was worse, I was using a stock-cooler.

But now I have my house centrally airconditioned, and a Zalman CNPS 9700, an all-solid-caps mobo and my Q6600 that's feeling horny.
